Snake Eyes (1998) 6/10: Nic Cage runs about an Atlantic City casino trying to find out who's done murders and caused all sorts of trouble that night.
The Mask of Zorro (1997) 8/10: Antonio Banderas and Anthony Hopkins run about 19th century Mexico stirring up anachronistic anti-colonialist sentiment. The governor isn't pleased when trouble - by the name of Zorro - comes knocking!
Labour Pains (2009) 5/10: Lindsay Lohan pretends she's pregnant to get special treatment at work. As the fib snowballs, she gets into more and more teeth-gritting hilarious trouble!
The Mummy Returns (2001) 5/10: Brendan Fraser and his knockabout gang of himself, some other blokes, a plucky young lady and probably a traitor get wind of an ancient treasure(s), and unexpectedly manage to tumble into a whole den of silly trouble in a desert somewhere.
The Scorpion King (2002) 7/10: having failed to properly fit himself into the plot of the above film, The Scorpion King tried for his own story, with much more success, the following year. The Rock is a far more valid and appropriate hero than dangling nonentity Fraser ever could hope to be, and in this film he's up against a barrage of almost relentless trouble in the ancient world.
Robin Hood (2010) 6/10: not nearly enough trouble in this rude, uninvited update of the legend starring Russell Crowe doing a sickening accent in the title role.
Starman (1984) 8/10: guess what happens when aliens answer Voyager 2's golden phonographic disk in the 80s by sending Jeff Bridges to visit Earth? Clue: it involves no small amount of what I like to call trouble!
Life as a House (2001) 8/10: Hayden Christensen is an trouble-prone teenage spoiled rotten pseudo-rebel who isn't happy about having to spend the summer with his father, Kevin Kline, who wants to build a house on the edge of a cliff.
Alfie (1966) 8/10: stone the crows! There's trouble in store for cheeky Cockney Michael Caine (Alfie), who can't stop knocking up the bloody birds in bleeding London in the fucking 1960s, when everything was OK no matter what.
Planet Terror (2007) 7/10: the most trouble that EVER happened in a motion picture happens in this one. Really. To say any more would risk spoiling it.
Deadgirl (2008) 6/10: bad boy + shy boy + dead girl = trouble x heaps!
The Goat (1921) 8/10: The grandfather of trouble, Buster Keaton, is mistaken for dangerous murderer Dead Shot Dan, and excellent chases ensue.
